I am utterly spent and crushed; I groan because of the tumult of my heart.

But I am like a deaf man, I do not hear, like a dumb man who does not open his mouth.

Yea, I am like a man who does not hear, and in whose mouth are no rebukes.

For I am ready to fall, and my pain is ever with me.

I confess my iniquity, I am sorry for my sin.

I am dumb, I do not open my mouth; for it is thou who hast done it.

Remove thy stroke from me; I am spent by the blows of thy hand.

"Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears! For I am thy passing guest, a sojourner, like all my fathers.

As for me, I am poor and needy; but the Lord takes thought for me. Thou art my help and my deliverer; do not tarry, O my God!

"Be still, and know that I am God. I am exalted among the nations, I am exalted in the earth!"

"Hear, O my people, and I will speak, O Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God.

But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God for ever and ever.

Attend to me, and answer me; I am overcome by my trouble. I am distraught

When I am afraid, I put my trust in thee.

I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched. My eyes grow dim with waiting for my God.

I am the talk of those who sit in the gate, and the drunkards make songs about me.

Hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in distress, make haste to answer me.

Insults have broken my heart, so that I am in despair. I looked for pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.

But I am afflicted and in pain; let thy salvation, O God, set me on high!

But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! Thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not tarry!
